I have been wanting to make a chalkboard frame for a while, but could never find the perfect mirror or frame--until I spotted this beauty at good ol TJ Maxx! (you never let me down) The whole project was pretty easy. I just used the chalkbaord spray paint, and it worked fabulously!......Now if i could just take some handwriting lessons--looking at mine it making me cringe a little:)
Love it! I'm nervous about chalkboard paint because I don't really have a lot of space and I'm afraid it would spray up and end up getting on our deck/windows :/ Did you do this project in a garage/studio?
I love how you can take something ordinary and make it into something extraordinary! That takes talent and vision, both of which you are greatly blessed with!
Wait just minute! There is such a thing as "Chalk Board Spray?" How cool is that??? Yours turned out darling. :) Enjoy scribbling on it. I love chalk boards; they are so playful. (and in this case very classy looking!)
So, you don't know me but I found your blog and I love your style, you are so creative! I am just wondering though, what kind of paint did you use to go over the gold? and did you spray the chalkboard stuff just over the mirror? If you could let me know that would be great... I would love to try this project out!
natalie--Thanks for your sweet comment :) The chalkboard spray paint you can use straight on the mirror; it works great. Over the gold I used a white gloss spray paint. You could also use patio paint. Such a easy and fun project~
Way cute, I didn't know there was spray praint like that. That is pretty nifty! You will have to come up to my house and give me some ideas for the remodel!
